Levítico 5
1 Si alguno es llamado a testificar porque fue testigo de algo que vio o supo, y no lo denunció, comete pecado y es culpable.
And if anyone does wrong by saying nothing when he is put under oath as a witness of something he has seen or had knowledge of, then he will be responsible:
2 Si alguien toca cualquier cosa impura, ya sea el cadáver de una bestia impura, el cadáver de animal impuro o el cadáver de un reptil impuro, aunque no lo sepa, será impuro y culpable.
If anyone becomes unclean through touching unconsciously some unclean thing, such as the dead body of an unclean beast or of unclean cattle or of any unclean animal which goes flat on the earth, he will be responsible:
3 O si toca alguna impureza humana, de cualquier impureza con la cual se contamine, sin darse cuenta, y después lo sabe, es culpable.
Or if he becomes unclean through touching unconsciously any unclean thing of man, whatever it may be, when it is made clear to him he will be responsible:
4 Si alguien jura a la ligera con sus labios, para mal o para bien, en cualquier cosa en la cual el hombre acostumbra pronunciar juramento, y no se da cuenta, pero luego se percata, es culpable por cualquiera de estas cosas.
Or if anyone, without thought, takes an oath to do evil or to do good, whatever he says without thought, with an oath, having no knowledge of what he is doing; when it becomes clear to him, he will be responsible for any of these things.
5 Cuando alguno peque en alguna de estas cosas, confesará aquello en lo cual pecó.
And whoever is responsible for any such sin, let him make a statement openly of his wrongdoing;
6 Para sacrificio que apacigua por su pecado presentará ante Yavé una hembra del rebaño, sea oveja o cabra, como sacrificio por el pecado, y el sacerdote le hará sacrificio que apacigua por su pecado.
And take to the Lord the offering for the wrong which he has done, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin-offering, and the priest will take away his sin.
7 Pero si no tiene suficiente para ofrecer una oveja, entonces presentará por su culpa dos tórtolas o dos palominos a Yavé: uno como sacrificio por el pecado y otro para holocausto.
And if he has not money enough for a lamb, then let him give, for his offering to the Lord, two doves or two young pigeons; one for a sin-offering and one for a burned offering.
8 Los llevará al sacerdote. Éste presentará primero el que es sacrificio por el pecado, y de una uñada le desconectará la cabeza del cuello, pero no la separará.
And let him take them to the priest, who will first give the sin-offering, twisting off its head from its neck, but not cutting it in two;
9 Rociará parte de la sangre del sacrificio por el pecado sobre la pared del altar, y exprimirá el resto de la sangre al pie del altar. Es ofrenda por el pecado.
And he is to put drops of the blood of the offering on the side of the altar, and the rest of the blood is to be drained out at the base of the altar; it is a sin-offering.
10 Con el segundo hará holocausto según lo establecido, y el sacerdote hará sacrificio que apacigua a favor de él, por la falta con la cual pecó, y será perdonado.
And the second is for a burned offering, in agreement with the law; and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.
11 Si no tiene lo suficiente para dos tórtolas o dos palominos, entonces, el que pecó presentará como ofrenda suya 2,2 gramos de flor de harina para el sacrificio que apacigua. No le echará aceite ni le pondrá incienso, porque es ofrenda por el pecado.
But if he has not enough money for two doves or two young pigeons, then let him give, for the sin he has done, the tenth part of an ephah of the best meal, for a sin-offering; let him put no oil on it, and no perfume, for it is a sin-offering.
12 La presentará al sacerdote, quien tomará de ella su puñado como memorial y la hará arder en el altar como ofrenda quemada a Yavé. Es ofrenda por el pecado.
And let him come to the priest with it, and the priest will take some of it in his hand, to be burned on the altar as a sign, among the offerings of the Lord made by fire: it is a sin-offering.
13 El sacerdote hará sacrificio que apacigua a favor de él por su falta con la cual pecó en alguna de estas cosas, y será perdonado. El resto será para el sacerdote, como en el caso de la ofrenda vegetal.
And the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness: and the rest of the offering will be the priest's, in the same way as the meal offering.
14 Entonces Yavé habló a Moisés:
And the Lord said to Moses,
15 Si alguno comete una falta y peca por ignorancia con respecto a las cosas consagradas a Yavé, presentará a Yavé como sacrificio suyo por la culpa un carnero del rebaño sin defecto, evaluado en siclos de plata, según el siclo del Santuario, como sacrificio por el pecado.
If anyone is untrue, sinning in error in connection with the holy things of the Lord, let him take his offering to the Lord, a male sheep from the flock, without any mark, of the value fixed by you in silver by shekels, by the scale of the holy place.
16 Restituirá además lo que dañó de las cosas consagradas y añadirá un quinto sobre ello, lo cual dará al sacerdote. Éste hará sacrificio que apacigua a favor de él por medio del carnero del sacrificio por el pecado, y será perdonado.
And he is to make payment to the priest for what he has done wrong in relation to the holy thing, together with a fifth part of its value in addition; and the priest will take away his sin by the sheep of his offering, and he will have forgiveness.
17 Si alguno peca y quebranta cualquiera de los Mandamientos de Yavé con respecto a cosas que no se deben hacer, aunque no se dé cuenta, será responsable y pagará su falta.
And if anyone does wrong, and does any of the things which the Lord has given orders are not to be done, though he has no knowledge of it, still he is in the wrong and he is responsible.
18 Llevará un carnero del rebaño sin defecto, según tu estimación, como sacrificio por el pecado. El sacerdote hará por él sacrificio que apacigua por la falta que cometió sin darse cuenta, y será perdonado.
Let him come to the priest with a sheep, a male without any mark out of the flock, of the value fixed by you, as an offering for his error; and the priest will take away the sin which he did in error, and he will have forgiveness.
19 Es un sacrificio por la culpa. Ciertamente es culpable ante Yavé.
It is an offering for his error: he is certainly responsible before the Lord.
